An Old English Captain.

A conspicuous object in front Of the
house of commons the other day was an
army captain, formerly belonging to the
Eighty-sixth regiment, who, In order to
attract attention to some unheeded griev-
ance he has against the war office, dressed
himself up In most extraordinary
manner. He wore black undress milf
tary suit, white campaigning shake, two
white sachels hanging at his side, and he
carried in his hands an enormous broom,
with a handle about four feet long.
Dressed in this garb, and leaning on his
broom, he stood silently In front Of
one of the gates OF the house dur
ing the greater part of the day. He
did not appear to be mad, but he
seemed to suffer from great mental dis
tress. His age was about 80, and even in
his fantastic uniform he had respectable
and commanding presence.

"A new industry has lately sprung up in

q most important ono. Oil for illuminat-
ing purposes IS now manufactured In that
country from the stunps and roots that
remain In the forests after the timber has
been cut. These have been subjected to q
process Of dry distillation, and besides
WOOD oil many other products are OBJ
txined, amongst them turpentine, creo-
sOte, acetic acid, wood charcoal, tar oils,
stc. This oil cannot be used In ordinary
amps, rs containing large proportion Of
carbon it gives of great deal of smoke
during combustion. When mixed with
benzine, however, It may be used In or

alone q special lamp must be adopted.
The trees that furnish the greatest

Rev. Daniel S. futile, Episcopal
Bishop of Missouri, was in town yester-
day. the guest of Miss Fannie Paige. u
sister of Schenectady's postmaster, and
q cousin of ex-Assistant Attorney Gen
eral +. w. Paige, of New York. In
the evening Miss Paige and the Bishop
went out on the river in cranky row
boat. The lady was in the stern and
the prelate in the bow, and both were
padding. Finally the Bishop leaned
little too much to one side, and as a
result the boat careened and Miss Paige
was thrown headlong into very deep
water. Bishop futile immediately
dived after the lady, the boat capsizing
as he left it. The Bishop is powerful
swimmer, aud when Miss Paige came to
the surface he siezed her around the
waist and swan with her to the boat,
to which they chung until assistance
came from two young men who had
been attracted by Miss Paige's screams
The overturned boat was righted and
taken near enough to shore to permit
Miss Paige and Bishop Tuttle to get in
and row home.
